1. Launch Power BI on your computer.
2. Click on "**File**" in the top-left corner of the application window, then select "**Options and settings**>**Options**".
3. In the "**Options**" window, click the "Security" tab on the left side.
4. Locate the "**Data Extensions**" section on the right-hand side.
5. By default, the "**Allow any extension to load without validation or warning**" setting is set to "Recommended". Switch it to "**Not Recommended**."
6. Click on "**OK**" to save the changes.
